Abstract

Abstract A pneumatic vehicle tire with a pull-resistant belt which extends essentially over the width of the tread and essentially stabilizes the tire body against lateral forces. The tire also has a reinforcement in the tire sidewall consisting of cord fabric layers, whereby the externally located cord fabric layer has a greater expansion, elongation, or elasticity than the cord fabric layer which faces or is directed toward the tire hollow chamber. Furthermore, the cord fabric layer of smaller elasticity is guided from bead to bead and is there secured or anchored by being looped around the bead cores. With at least approximately radial positioning of both cord fabric layers of the tire sidewall, the externally located cord fabric layer extends only from one bead to an adjoining tire shoulder, and in this region the edges of this cord fabric layer are arranged between the cord fabric layer which is guided from bead to bead and the edge of the belt. The cord fabric layer of greater elasticity may be arranged along the inner periphery between the cord fabric layer having the lesser elasticity and the bead core. The edge of the cord fabric layer with the greater elasticity may be directed toward that side of the bead core which is located adjacent to the hollow chamber inside the tire.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 253 words
A pneumatic vehicle tire having a hollow inner chamber defined by a rubbery body with inner periphery as well as outer periphery and comprising in combination: a tread included with the body; a shoulder region of the body on each side of and adjacent to said tread; a sidewall of the body on each side of and adjacent to said shoulder regions; a bead section adjacent each of said sidewalls; a bead core in each of said bead sections; a reinforcement having an edge located along inner periphery as inserted extending at least approximately radially and including a radially inner first rayon cord fabric layer directed toward said hollow inner chamber, and two radially outer second polyamide cord fabric layers, said first layer having a first elasticity and extending from one bead section to another and being anchored therein along outer periphery and simultaneously along inner periphery by being looped around the respective bead cores; and a pull-resistant belt located between said tread and said first layer, extending essentially over the width of said tread between said should regions, and essentially stabilizing the tire body against lateral forces, said second layers having a greater elasticity than said first layer, one of said second layers being located in each of said sidewalls and extending from a respective bead section to the respective adjacent shoulder region, with that edge of the respective second layer which is located in said pertaining shoulder region being located between a pertaining edge of said belt and said first layer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 253 words
A pneumatic vehicle tire having a hollow inner chamber defined by a rubbery body with inner periphery as well as outer periphery and comprising in combination: a tread included with the body; a shoulder region of the body on each side of and adjacent to said tread; a sidewall of the body on each side of and adjacent to said shoulder regions; a bead section adjacent each of said sidewalls; a bead core in each of said bead sections; a reinforcement having an edge located along inner periphery as inserted extending at least approximately radially and including a radially inner first rayon cord fabric layer directed toward said hollow inner chamber, and two radially outer second polyamide cord fabric layers, said first layer having a first elasticity and extending from one bead section to another and being anchored therein along outer periphery and simultaneously along inner periphery by being looped around the respective bead cores; and a pull-resistant belt located between said tread and said first layer, extending essentially over the width of said tread between said should regions, and essentially stabilizing the tire body against lateral forces, said second layers having a greater elasticity than said first layer, one of said second layers being located in each of said sidewalls and extending from a respective bead section to the respective adjacent shoulder region, with that edge of the respective second layer which is located in said pertaining shoulder region being located between a pertaining edge of said belt and said first layer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
A tire in combination according to claim 1, in which that edge of the respective second layer which is located in said pertaining bead section is located between said first layer and said pertaining bead core.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 40 words
A tire in combination according to claim 2, in which that edge of the respective second layer which is located in said pertaining bead section is located on that side of said pertaining bead core facing said hollow inner chamber.
